Flavor ingredient dihydro anethole (FEMA# 2930, CAS# 104-45-0) imparts notes of mainly aniseed and licorice. Its spicy aroma also comprises nuances of fennel and tarragon. Sweet, coumarin-like notes face off against fresh eucalyptus notes. It helps to make many fruit flavors seem less candy-like and contributes significantly to the body of the flavor.
